3g works now thanks but when i call i dont hear anything

I had this issue for incoming calls. I think it's to do with the kernel, but you need Viruscrazy's kernels for the camera. to answer calls i have to use the speaker option, and then disable it again to be able to hear the person. this could possibly work for you? Can you hear the ringing when dialing out?

So you have everything but the ONE thing a mobile phone was made to do? If you've got a stable version so far, i'd copy all your files into a backup folder and try playing around with the kernels. Alternatively wait a few days and some one will hopefully release a single package with everything we need.

i'd like to know if you can use cell tower location with Froyo x Red (meaning locate yourself without using gps)?
It has never worked for me, but on FRX94 it works fine.


Anyway, Camera and Video working great on Blackstone, even with using a custom root folder (andboot), 8GB SDHC and IPv6.

Hey thanks for the tutorial!
I made the whole process but when i use android after some minutes the devices just stops responding. And i have to take the battery off to reset it. Also when someone calls me its doesnt do anything but the person who calls hears normally the sound of calling. What has gone wrong? anyone has an idea?? i ve done this proccess twice but no difference.

Hi,

I've installed this build on my Blackstone . But when trying to boot it it doesn't pass the black screen with the logs. After a short time it repeats some kind of mdp_dma busy code and eventually it stops and the screen goes black or it starts loading Android ,but that doesn't stop. So the animation keeps being repeated over and over again without actually loading everything ,because it doesn't stop.
How can I solve this error and boot normally?

Thanks in advance and sorry for my bad English

Ik heb geprobeerd alles te installeren volgens de uitleg ,maar bij het opstarten van Haret start alles op ,maar bij het zwarte scherm begint het probleem. Hij laad alles gewoon normaal zoals het zou moeten ,maar de hele tijd word er door de witte status teksten command timeout , mdp_dma busy , end_request en I/O error gespamt. Uiteindelijk worden alleen nog deze achterelkaar weergegeven en word Android gewoon niet geladen .Ik had het ookal eerder geprobeerd bij een andere Froyo X build en toen had ik hetzelfde probleem. Hoe kan ik dit oplossen?

Alvast bedankt

for some reason it didn't worked with fat32 i was getting "Failed to mount the SD card"..
"/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off" error.
So i used "SDformatter v2.0" and it formatted it to FAT and it booted normally.

    So I noticed there wasnt any tutorial on how to install it and you just had to search all the posts in the froyo x thread to figure it out. Now I have done it this way.Im sure there are tons of other ways.But this one workes for me and I just want to share it. I will try to keep it up to date so everybody can install android on their blackstone.

    All credits to Tiad8 and other developers this is not my build!

    special thanks to TRNSLN who helped me install froyo so I can help you

    Anyway first things first. Is this something for me to use daily? well here is your change to figure out.

    My homescreen+menu+latitude

    proof the camera works
    Sample video(shot with blackstone)

    screenshot camera app:

    sample photo(shot with blackstone) click here for full image

    img20110224231634.jpg




    So is this something for you?

    whats working and whats not?

    wifi/3G/sync =Ok!
    market =Ok!
    latitude =Ok!
    Headphones =Ok!
    messaging/calling(call/receive) =Ok!
    Bluetooth =testing..
    Battery =10/11 hour
    Usb =No (at least not with standard app, there have been reports of usb via other program havent tested it yet)
    Chapters of this tutorial:
    [1]Formatting SD card
    [2]Installing Froyo X red
    [3]Installing Camera
    [4]Finishing up

    Downloads
    1 Froyo X Red
    2 kernel+libs
    3 Haret+Startup.txt-Ts-Calibration
    4 If having problems with booting android try this startup.txt
    [1]Formatting SD card

    Easy as pie.
    put your memory card in a sd card reader (your blackstone will do fine) and plug it in your pc/laptop.
    open My pc and look for your memory card and right click on it.
    Click Format

    make sure FAT32 is selected and click ok
    16774455.png


    Ok great Sd card is formatted and ready to go. no lets move on..

    [2]Installing froyo X Red /B]
    ok first things first download Froyo X Red and Haret+Startup.txt-Ts-Calibration.
    Then unpack Froyo X Red to the root of your memory card(root means on your memory card not in an folder on your memory card)
    screenieea.png


    Then open up Haret+Startup.txt-Ts-Calibration and copy all the files to the root of your memory card.
    screeniew.png


    Now unmount your Blackstone or Sd card reader from your pc.Put the Sd card in your blackstone(if it isnt already there) navigate to your storage card and open the file Haret

    Now it shoud just give you a bunch of text and a little linux penguin let it load for a while(note: It coud take some minutes so dont think it wont boot)

    screeniex.jpg


    it shoud boot. now follow the set-up and sync your google account.then turn off your blackstone and reboot it.so it boots in windows mobile again.when its in windows mobile go to the next step!

    [3]Installing Camera
    so android working accordingly everything set up but still no camera..
    its time to change that

    download kernel+libs

    simply unpack the zip to your memory card..
    overwrite zImage
    screenie2a.png


    thats that your done. enjoy android with working camera!
    [4]Finishing up

    this isnt really a neccesary step but I do recommend it.

    open up spare parts and set the Window animation and Transition animation to Fast

    and your done! have fun with your brand new Android phone..
